Sekkeh
Sekkeh is a typeface inspired by the inscriptions and motifs engraved on historic coins—where calligraphy, identity, and power were once displayed within a small circle. This typeface seeks to bring the same solidity, geometric order, and permanence into Persian letterforms. Its angular, almost architectural structure recalls the legacy of Kufic, yet it has been reimagined with a contemporary voice.
Designed for headlines and distinctive titles, Sekkeh embodies a bold and enduring presence. It is simple but never alien, familiar yet never repetitive—a reflection of history that speaks in today’s language.
